I can't believe i am the first person to be singing the praises of this film...it is an absolute classic and i can see no circumstances where it should be passed over.
A simple piece of advice...watch it, watch it now and you'll be quoting lines and siging up to be a fighter pilot before you know it.
There really is something for everyone, convince the missus it's a love story then sit back and enjoy the fighter pilot action.
Simply genius.

Katie Holmes has hailed husband Tom Cruise her favourite fashion critic, because he can criticize the actress' clothing choices without hurting her feelings. Holmes insists the pair shares a passion for fashion and almost always agree on her costume picks, and, even when they don't, the Top Gun star is skilled at letting her down gently. The actress tells Elle magazine, "Tom has great taste. He usually likes everything, but sometimes I'll walk out and he'll say, 'I think that dress might be... Read more
